Beautiful and sunny beach in Spain! I stayed in a hotel right next to the beach!…read more Although the waters are salty (it IS the Mediterranean Sea) and a tad bit cold, even in a time like August, I still really enjoyed this beach. It's a great time for families to enjoy their time here, with bars and restaurants in this area. Many people build BEAUTIFUL sandcastles for display - though you'll need to pay to take a picture with them (interesting way for people to make money)! There are still quite a bit of shells that you will see in this beach, especially if you're lucky, they're right along the coast! The best part about this beach are probably the beach shops and souvenirs right beside it. It was super convenient, and it brought a culture to this beach. I would definitely recommend living in the hotels close to the beach, super convenient!!

With 1,100 moorings for boats of all nationalities and up to 6 meters long, Benalmadena Port - 'Puerto Marina' is one of the Costa del Sol's busiest centres by day and night. For the energetic, the nightlife carries on in sophisticated bars and clubs. The Marina has a beautiful beach area with beach beds and parasols for hire. The situation and overall architectural design makes this port one of the most attractive places of its kind. Since 1987 it has continually been awarded the European Blue Flag for its excellent service and clean waters. Add to this, the privileged climate with an average annual temperature of 22º and around 320 days of sunshine and you have many people's idea heaven. Alternatively take a stroll through the busy port, with its many shops, while choosing from the vast variety of restaurants and bar for some lunch or dinner. For those who want to try out the Spanish 'tapas' there are at least 20 little terrace bars choose from, where you can sample many types of fish and other delicacies, while soaking up the atmosphere of the port and looking out over the Mediterranean or at the fabulous selection of boats in the harbour. It is certainly one of the liveliest places to dine, so close to luxurious yachts and the twinkling Mediterranean.

This small but pleasant beach is just to the left of the Balcon de Europe and the closest beach to…read moremy hotel, so naturally I spent the most time here. It wasn't quite yet high tourist season, so was it still easy to find yourself a spot. Its mostly tourists but there are some local Spaniards relaxing along side. The water is calm and looked clean enough for some pleasant swimming. The sand is more rocky than fine, so bring flip flops. And beer! There's a section where you can rent lounge chairs. Topless sunbathing supposedly isn't allowed, but no one is there to enforce the rules, so you might see some boobs, just like any other European beach(A warning for the sensitive "proper" British wives). The abandoned restaurant is creepy yet fascinating, and not nearly as creepy as the few drugged out homeless hippies you might see. But overall, I spent a several hours here happy, relaxed, and slightly intoxicated. Cheers! TRAVEL TIP: Spain has some beautiful beaches along the Costa del Sol, but most of the water is actually polluted due to inadequate sewage systems. Don't drink the water!
